How to set up and use notifications on your Apple Watch

With the Apple Watch you don't have to run back to your iPhone or Mac just to check your notifications. All you have to do is set them up!

Since both the Apple Watch and notifications are all about convenience, it's no surprise that notifications on the Apple Watch are about the most convenient thing ever. By default, your Apple Watch can mirror the notifications from your the built-in apps and App Store apps on your iPhone. You can, however, turn notifications on or off on an app-by-app basis, and even customize the settings of some of Apple's built-in apps. All you have to do is set them up and start using them!
